The world of artificial intelligence is abuzz with the emergence of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI language model challenging the dominance of established players like OpenAI's ChatGPT.  DeepSeek has undoubtedly sent ripples through the tech industry, raising questions about the future of AI development and the global balance of power.  Its purported ability to match ChatGPT's functionality at a fraction of the training cost has sparked both excitement and concern.

This has resulted in notable declines in the stock prices of major American tech companies, with NVIDIA experiencing a significant drop. 

DeepSeek's rise has also fueled geopolitical anxieties, particularly regarding the US-China tech rivalry.  While the extent of its impact on US tech giants remains to be seen, DeepSeek's emergence highlights the rapid advancements in AI and the potential for disruptive innovation from unexpected players.

As AI evolves, questions arise about the balance between human emotion and machine logic, and whether we are nearing an era where machines could replace human roles.

Join host Han Yonghong and guest Tim Zhang, Edge Research Founder & CEO, as they explore these developments and their global implications.
